As such, it makes a major contribution to the development of a combined corpus and discourse analytic approach to textual analysis. The papers contained in this collection present thorough, evidence-based descriptions of language use in a range of disciplines, which extend our understanding of how writers construct texts and interact with their readers, in diverse disciplinary contexts. This book is essential reading for students and researchers of academic discourse, and for those involved in the teaching of English for Academic Purposes. It will also interest applied corpus linguists and discourse analysts.\" -Paul Thompson, Lecturer, University of Reading UK The volume's clear structural and conceptual divisions, along with the various introductions, provide a helpful scaffold for the reader, particularly those less familiar with the issues under discussion. The comprehensive subject and author indexes are also reader friendly and facilitate access to the volume's many interconnecting themes. -Australian Review of Applied Linguistics, Issue 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContributors; Introduction: Exploring the Interface Between Corpus Linguistics and Discourse Analysis Maggie Charles, Diane Pecorari and Susan Hunston; Part I: Focus on Genre and Disciplinary Discourses; Introduction to Part I Maggie Charles; 1.
